    Sometimes it’s better to just get it out there, regardless of the outcome, rather than let that feeling fester within you for years. Or you look back later on in life and think, “I should’ve said something…”, or “Why didn’t I ever…”. It sucks donkey balls getting rejected and you’re probably more likely to get rejected than not, but it’s still something you should do in spite of the odds. Like my hot cousin, I always wonder what might’ve been had I made a move, but I’ll never know and that’ll stay with me for a lifetime now.

      You had me at the “just do it” part.

      But you lost me at the “hot cousin” part.

      Minus the cousin bit, I knew of a guy who lived in Washington that did just that, just got it out there. Ken Pinyan, he was a Boeing engineer. Everyone just called him Mr. Hands.
